I’m 53 and have been in the corporate sales setting since I was 28. After 25 years I am ready to walk away from it and get a less stressful job. Wife and I are debt free which is a huge plus - other than property taxes. I am not spending my last 10 years of working in a high stress, quoted / metric driven job any longer. I’m tired and burnt. Always worried about my job and this is not the way to live your life after 55.
Sounds like we have similar thoughts. I worked in corporate at 24 and retired at 55 (retirement just means I'm financially independent and can focus on other things, not sipping mai tais at the beach). The hardest part about retiring early is to convince yourself that's ok to let go of your safety blanket you're used to for so long, and not just your financial numbers supports it. A year later (at 56) and I'm glad I did. If you do retire, give yourself about 6 months to be lazy and do nothing doing this transition period. If you're a performer, you'll probably want to re-purpose yourself doing something else that appeals to you. After hitting in your 50s time becomes a more commodity than money, unless you don't have enough of the later. Good luck.
@@susanwong6471 In 10 years you'll be 65, heading toward 70. Not much time left. Just get that less stressful job or even no job. At our age, (me 56), no need to think about anything but yourself. You worked hard, now you deserve a life you always wanted to live. if not, what was all the grinding for? to retire in a gold-plated nursing home?
Similar situation here, I wanted to be more and do more, and an income that I love doing each and every day, where the journey itself is the goal, not the money, that's just a byproduct. We don't know what we are capable of doing until we try. What did you end up doing?
I'm 45 a I finally quit my job and will be starting my own business! So freeing and exciting! Took me a lot of years and crying to make the decision, but my biggest fear is having to go back yo corporate world. I have 20 more years to work, I cannot spend them in a corporate job , feeling like a slave. I would rather work as a waitress. But I will work on my business - accounting services. I will be the one to make my schedule and I will take time for making sports outside everyday, watching the nature, gardening, and I will decide when I go on vacation, not when my boss lets me go.
“Time has slowed down. I feel my senses returning. Ticking of the clock matching my heartbeat.” Beautiful!That’s exactly what stressless freedom feels once you leave job that’d been sucking life out of you.👍 Very well put, you should be a writer, a talent to describe feelings like that!👍👍👍
"I've been operating and making decisions based off a fear of what could go wrong rather than inspiration over everything that could go right" Such a good video and this was so well written!! I wish you the best of luck going forward :D
this was incredibly written and shot! you are a magnificent storyteller! i’m a new grad and i haven’t been able to shake the feeling that i’ve been going through life in a trance, stuck in free fall by indecision. i’m starting a corporate tech job but i don’t even know if it’s what i want. i’ve worked my whole life toward some arbitrary pinnacle of success, getting into a “top” college, pursuing the interesting, in-demand major, and securing and a coveted job. convention was “easy” to strive toward because i didn’t have to make a commitment to myself. in the process i’ve entirely neglected my wellbeing. i’ve cucooned myself with what is comfortable while avoiding asking myself what i really want, what makes me excited. this video made me feel like i could actually feel alive again. the thought of finally seizing joy is terrifying- but you’ve made me want to try. thank you.
i love this comment and thank you for your kind words + sharing! Rebuilding a sense of self post-grad is not easy, especially when the 20+ years leading up to that moment feels practically written out for you. It's exactly as you said, seizing joy is TERRIFYING. But little things like connecting with others throughout the journey is what makes you stop and remember "actually, i'm not as alone in this as i think" (and you meet cool people along the way). Thank you for making my day! Rooting for you always 💗
Miss, I just woke up for my Monday shift and this made me (a 30-year old man who does a soul sucking job) sob. Very well written and spoken. Thank you.
I made the same decision this year. I quit that stable job everyone looked up to me of having. But, I'd already been thinking about that for a year, so when I quit, I already landed the job where I actually wanted to be. Riskier but bolder, tired but more grateful, scared of the unknown but FREER. If someone dares to do something like what I'd done, it would be better to think of what you actually wanted to do and not neglect the responsibilities you have at the moment. If you don't have anything you want to do in particular, then I think it would be best to prioritize your healing. Yeah, it's a scary move but you honestly have to discuss with yourself why you need to have that change. Also, don't hesitate to express your thoughts to the trusted ones. In the end, you're still the one who should weigh everything before making the move. :')
I can't stop crying watching this. There is nothing I want more in this life than to quit my stressful corporate job I've been doing for 10 years. This video has inspired me so much to start setting my plan on how to do it. I'm gonna need some savings and lil bit of courage and I'll be there 😊
in my 20s. quit everything. Dropped out of school. Started this channel and reflecting on the same things you are. ❤❤ (fyi if you’re in your 20s and also navigating life - would love to see you around).
Beautifully said and presented. Thank you for sharing. I feel it in my body that this corporate job is no longer for me. This is a lovely encouragement x
I needed to hear this, thank you so much Cecilia. I'm 41 and on the brink of quitting my job to follow my dreams and be financially independent, this video will be my soundtrack from now onwards and will listen to it weekly. You have a gift indeed, stay blessed.
Thank you so much, beautiful soul, for creating this message for us to receive. I am in the process of leaving my corporate job, and I've felt all sorts of emotions. This is a great reminder to trust myself and take the time to process.
Really liked this video. So peaceful. I feel like I have been some kind of living dead too. Just gave notice today. Feels good. I have health problems and I don’t know if today is the easiest day or if there will be even easier days ahead. In case this is the easiest day I’ll have compared to the future, then I can’t waste my time feeling this much dread. Mental affects physical, eventually. I want my job to be a distant memory, something I say “huh, wasn’t that a weird time?” in about 10 yrs.
I am also planning to leave my job. But i want to make sure that i have money to fall back on and to make sure my small business is atleast bringing in 10 clients a month to be able to make my salary. Coz i am tired,exhaused,not happy and being treated like a modern day sl*ve.
wow, I wish I had seen something like this 20 years earlier. I want to quit my job now but can’t. I now have too much responsibilities that I can’t afford losing my job. I envy you!
You have some good writing over here. Keep doing what you are doing. You are young and this is the time to take risk. If you fail, remember the most important lesson is to learn from your failure. Good luck in this new journey of yours.
Thank you for this honest and vulnerable journal! I loved the messages you reflected on and shared in this video. I just put in my two weeks at my tech industry job after feeling super burnt out and realized it’s not the type of work I want to be doing, so I’m in the process of pivoting to do work that is more creatively and artistically aligned. I’m nervous but excited about the next steps! And doing my best to trust in myself and the process 🙂
Needed this so much. I'm 23 and quit corporate. I was thinking if I made the wrong choice and if I should have followed the rat race. But this video poured life back into me. Need so much more people like this who are able to trust their intuition and not have enough guts to leave a place which is soul sucking to them. This will help to quit the rat race and live! Thank you so much. loved the captions ❤
Wow! Thank you for sharing your daunting adventure. It really did feel like a journal come to life. Your poetry is also very nice. Please share more, keep us updated, and enjoy the 'not knowing' :)
I love this narrative. I'm quite a bit older now, but thought I share some experience life points. - With a lot of young adults, we were often steered into getting a higher education for a better future, or NOT. I'll leave the or NOT for another discussion. If you're not sure with what to do after high school, most will take the safer path, higher education, kicking that "what am I going to do with my life" can down the road, if the financial cost supports it. - Once you completed higher education, it's freaking scary to be released into the world and be self sustaining. Been there, done that. One is essentially trying to trade time for money, leveraging that college degree you earned for a good job potential. Time, at this point, is relatively cheap and money has a higher value because most don't have a lot of it. - If you are at a cross road here, where you're not happy with your career choices, and want a more carefree life, you maybe in trouble. It's ok to take risks and fail (you'll have time to recover), try new things, take a sabbatical, but don't leave things to fate. ALWAYS have a backup plan. - If you work hard to raise that initial "seed" money, invest wisely, you're setting future self up in a good place. - Fast forward (10, 15, 20 years), once you have enough "seed money" and investing, you'll let money work for you (instead of you working for money). Time becomes more precious and a career job making money becomes less important. You'll have *choices* for more work/life balance and less stress. - My own life path was I put my head down and work hard at an initial high stress job for about 10 years, knowing I had an exit strategy. After that, I was in a much better position for work/life balance, and ultimately, retired early. Retire early just means you're financially independent and can do pretty much what you want to do, not sitting around sipping Mai Tai =). Good luck to our Gen Z and wish you the best with success and happiness in life.
what a well written journal entry! Subscribed to see where you go with this channel, and Liked because I enjoyed watching the whole video. Excited for you in your life's newest direction. Cheers!
I can’t stress enough how much I love this video. I listened to every word. Rewatched it. Felt it. Especially the part where you say the heartbeat matching to the beat of the clock. How wise and strong of you to make this decision for yourself so early in your adult life. So happy for you. I take courage from your story. I wish I could have made this decision for myself sooner. Maybe I still have a chance. 32 isn’t that late, right? 😅
Love this! Exactly the reason why I make my job work for me and not vice-versa. Been to over 60 countries at 24, ready to buy my first piece of real estate, and going for my graduate degrees (first in the family).
name's chris, im 30. im quitting the job in my hometown and moving to a city a couple hours over. austin tx. got a job lined up, will be living out my car for awhile. kinda crazy, but my soul's calling for it. took me years to pull the trigger, but i found myself back on this path time after time. id back out, out of fear. but i'm going in this week. you said something in the video about operating out of fear, and it resonated. hope all is well w you now!
I quit my job last Fall & at first it was scary. It was hard taking that leap/1st step. Looking back i was so unhappy & 20 lbs heavier. I was using my degree but at what cost? My own mental health. Now i work in a factory & make $9 grand less per year, but the health insurance is way better than old job & I clock in & clock out. I loved your quote: " dont confine yourself to one path because you are capable of so much more", couldnt have said it better myself. Was using my Apparel Design degree & now I'm welding! Ive always loved working with my hands & would hate a desk job. I'm curious what job you had that was killing your soul, what are u doing now? 🤔
Help! I feel like I'm starting losing my mind. I quit my last job since it was a disaster. And now I'm in the new one and it is even worse. The anxiety and depression I've had since the last job got even more stack up wit the new ones. I was so good at my job and I was thriving back in 2021. Now, I often do mistakes at my work and then my boss starting to annoy me. Then I got anxious and do more mistakes. And it becomes a never ending spiral and now my boss seems to hate me. I end up anxious and depress now. I tried therapy and still can't happy. Because of what happen in lately, I also lost my 2 best friends. I don't even know what is happening to me. I have no wins. not even a tiny one.
love it so much! I am learning to trust myself and I am in the process. There is so much wisdom in your words! You are wise, girl! What's next for you?
So this is gonna happen to millennial doctors. I don’t know a single fellow doc around my age who is not burned out, angry, and borderline depressed. I think we are all saving money, investing, and lowering lifestyles. Which means in 10-15 years, there’s gonna be a gigantic plummet in doctors and the US is gonna be fucked. When it’s an abusive finance job and everyone quits, society is gonna be more or less ok. When an entire generation of doctors quits? Be careful, don’t slip on that rock, maybe wear a mask everywhere. Cuz the safety net is gonna disappear.
the #1 struggle and illussion; maintaining the freedom of choice; it's not about financial independence, etc. in this current world system we live in, we sacrifice our freedom of choice for money :c, in the greater theme, money isn't the end of the world either... gj!
This is waaaay more freeform that what I did, but I love what you're doing here! I wanted to do something that I enjoyed doing every day, that every day was an experience, that it gave me opportunities as you describe in your video. Very curious to know what you're up to now, and how you're going?
ah yes the fury and dreaminess of being 23, let me tell you, you will probably still feel the same at 40. No one knows what they are doing, every one is just winging it. Including the billionaires. It's not like anyone has ever lived twice.
I’m 53 and have been in the corporate sales setting since I was 28. After 25 years I am ready to walk away from it and get a less stressful job. Wife and I are debt free which is a huge plus - other than property taxes. I am not spending my last 10 years of working in a high stress, quoted / metric driven job any longer. I’m tired and burnt.

Heck ya you got it! Go out and live my friend, explore, dream, cry, laugh, wonder, ponder, question, find God, LIVE!! I believe in you friend! 💫🌱
“I can hear both my ease and urgency” I’ve never heard anything more accurate as I’ve recently done the same thing and I’ve never been happier
I literally cried watching this video because it was just what I needed and was the answer to the question I had. Thank you for being you!
😭😭 thank you for watching!!! Wishing you the best 💕

thank goodness you quit. hope you make films and movies. i've only watched 54 seconds and it's like an awesome movie the way it's filmed !!! :)
wow, I wish I had seen something like this 20 years earlier. I want to quit my job now but can’t. I now have too much responsibilities that I can’t afford losing my job. I envy you!
Cecilia, this was incredibly well written. I admire your courage and I look forward to following your journey. Subscribed.
I love your video. It sounds like a poetry where a person is trying to find himself/herself. Also, the music makes it much more great and pleasant.
You have some good writing over here. Keep doing what you are doing. You are young and this is the time to take risk. If you fail, remember the most important lesson is to learn from your failure. Good luck in this new journey of yours.
your words are so beautifully written - love this so much!

Love this! Exactly the reason why I make my job work for me and not vice-versa. Been to over 60 countries at 24, ready to buy my first piece of real estate, and going for my graduate degrees (first in the family).
Graduate “degrees?” How many graduate degrees do you need?
this touched my soul, you talking about gaining your senses again... god damn. I want this...
happy for you cecilia :,) this is really brave

"At what point have I surrendered myself to everyone else's dreams?"
love it so much! I am learning to trust myself and I am in the process. There is so much wisdom in your words! You are wise, girl! What's next for you?

Thanks for this lovely video. I needed this.
So this is gonna happen to millennial doctors. I don’t know a single fellow doc around my age who is not burned out, angry, and borderline depressed. I think we are all saving money, investing, and lowering lifestyles. Which means in 10-15 years, there’s gonna be a gigantic plummet in doctors and the US is gonna be fucked. When it’s an abusive finance job and everyone quits, society is gonna be more or less ok. When an entire generation of doctors quits? Be careful, don’t slip on that rock, maybe wear a mask everywhere. Cuz the safety net is gonna disappear.
i quit my job at 26. its been hard until i reach 34. now i have financial freedom and i dont work, i travel and play video games.
love this !
how will u keep urself afloat while having no job?
I’m 51, married, with adulting bills including mortgage, and a prisoner of my corporate job and wanting to be full time artist. How?!?
beautifully said. all the best to u 🫶🏼 and good luck to everyone about to take the next step :)
the #1 struggle and illussion; maintaining the freedom of choice; it's not about financial independence, etc. in this current world system we live in, we sacrifice our freedom of choice for money :c, in the greater theme, money isn't the end of the world either... gj!
You describe everything perfectly
Needed this
Incredibile words, thank you!
Same 😂I just can’t even stop watching these videos
This is waaaay more freeform that what I did, but I love what you're doing here! I wanted to do something that I enjoyed doing every day, that every day was an experience, that it gave me opportunities as you describe in your video. Very curious to know what you're up to now, and how you're going?
Oh my goodness. I’ve been unemployed for over a year now. I feel like I am a corpse amongst livings. 😊
This is really inspiring! Thank u
damn that's some story telling
ah yes the fury and dreaminess of being 23, let me tell you, you will probably still feel the same at 40. No one knows what they are doing, every one is just winging it. Including the billionaires. It's not like anyone has ever lived twice.
At 35 i quit my job and had self employed activity and now a farmer
“Grinning” 😁
